Devious & Adept Cyber Punks – Serious Threats to SME’s

Whether you’re an SME, Fortune 5000 company, or even a government organization, your business is a target for cyber attacks. The WMCO featured an information discussion on how the landscape of cyber threats is evolving and how businesses need to be adapting to safeguard how data is accessed in virtual environments.

Did you know that manufacturing is one of the top three industries cybercriminals are deploying their ransom attacks on?

“Major corporations and businesses are predicting that
cybercrime is going to be one of the top 5 economies in the
world in the next two to three years.”
– Erez Zevulunov, M.I.T. Consulting

As the sophistication of the attacks evolves, so has the way cyber security addresses the risks, and Zevulunov knows this well. For over 20 years, Zevuluno has owned and operated M.I.T. Consulting. M.I.T. manages and provides monitoring and protection for over 35,0000 accounts, received numerous business excellence awards, and works with large well-known clients like McDonald’s Corp. to SME manufacturing and everything in between

“50% of all employees will fall for ‘email phishing attacks”
– Erez Zevulunov, M.I.T. Consulting

Hackers are becoming more sophisticated with their attempts to breach your company’s data utilizing creative strategies and funded by highly paid and capable hackers.

Some individuals reading this article may recall last year’s supply chain cyberattack that affected thousands of endpoints, disrupting hundreds of businesses. Berenson Inc. was on hand at WMCO’s Feb.15th event to describe how the supply chain cyberattack last year affected their business from an upstream data point within the supply chain.

Complacency and time are not on your side when protecting against cyber threats.

In partnership with M.I.T. Consulting, we now
offer WMCO members discounted IT Solutions to
help prevent cyber security issues and save you money.
